I honestly prefer calling people.. I guess in these days that makes me old school LOL

Im just not big on the texting thing. I figure might as well send an email. Texting is not personal IMO, you cant hear a person... A lot of times i get much more from how a person sounds than what a person says.

I agree, but texting is nice when you don't know what the person you're contacting is in the middle of.
 
So... The problem with drinking enough caffeine to keep you awake on the road when you are tired is that the road ends before the caffeine wears off.

Despite what Robert Earl Keen says.

I remember doing an 8 hour convoy to up near the DMZ one night after an already VERY long day. My section sergeant was riding shotgun but was sound asleep despite the first sergeants orders for the riders to stay awake... And we were suppose to switch drivers every 2 hours... But i was only an E4 and the rider was an E7 and he wasnt about to give up his sleeping time... I never needed much sleep anyways but after that rough day i was just beat and it was hard to stay focused driving so i was eating caffeine pills like M&Ms and washing them down with tons of pepsi, and i was pissing in a Gatorade bottle while driving because i couldnt stop....

When we finally got there everyone started setting up the missile systems and the E7 that slept the entire way told me i could go get some rest... At that point i was so jittery i didnt think id ever sleep, but i sat back in the humvee and lit up a cigarette... Next thing ya know im being waken up 3 hours later and i had a burn mark from the cigarette on my ACUs and a pissed of sergeant asking me why there is a bottle of piss on the floor board.... Good times.

Not sure why i shared this... Your post reminded me of it though LOL
 
Pretty neat.

I had my fenix PD35 flashlight hanging above me near my computer "desk" table thingy and the flashlight fell.... It hit the steel radiator heater right on the glass.. its perfectly fine.. Some good glass.
 
The narrative flow in that 3-word story is jerky at best. :p
 
Good idea. If it floats, it's witchcraft. Burn it. If it sinks, it's witchcraft getting what it deserves.
If Bladite makes one of those with his new hand tools, it will advance him to Level 8 Warlock, I believe.

Excellent! Thinking like that is why your name is italicized in blue now. :thumbup:

If bladite makes one of those with just hand tools he may be in the wrong profession! Especially if he figures out how to do it without any plans or instructions.

I wouldnt burn it if i had one :D

Unless i woke up with purple wings or some such crap....
 
I'm waaaay late to the game here with this but nonetheless...

Pasta can boil over really easily.

If you aren't using a real big pot to cook the pasta (plenty of reasons why but chief among them is so that the pasta will not stick together), you can always place a wooden spoon over the mouth of the pot and you will get no boil over. I can't explain why, I just know it works. :)

Also, I sent Dex an email last night, but I haven't heard back from him yet...
